Description: The things I learn when I list postcards! This interesting real photo postcard hails from Williamsburg, Ontario, Canada. Dr. Locke was an early bone manipulator and treated up to 1000 people in one day. He would sit in his swivel chair and go round and round the circle doing manual manipulation of the feet, helping people with arthritis and other foot ailments. He charged $1 per treatment, and worked on each patient twice in one day. People came from far and wide for his services. Very cool medical history! Enjoy - Unposted. Sharp image. Handwritten date on the front bottom edge. Edge and corner wear consistent with a vintage postcard.Please see photos of postcard for condition and ask any questions before purchase. Please like and follow my eBay store Groovy Postcards, I'm adding hundreds of new postcards every month. Thanks! There is NO TRACKING on International Sales.
